The Other Half: The History of Women Through the Ages
CHAT: Elodie Harper on 'The Wolf Den'
•
Elodie Harper is a reporter and presenter at ITV News Anglia. She's worked as a journalist for the past decade, including for Channel 4 News, ITN and BBC Radio with a focus on crime reporting in Norfolk, where her first two novels are set.
The Wolf Den takes her in a new direction and to a new time period in the lupanar of Ancient Pompeii.
Buy Elodie's book from Blackwells or, if you're not from the US or Canada, from your local bookstore. You can also get it from Amazon, but I reckon Jeff Bezos has enough money.
